I am using Fedora distributions with KDE installed for my daily work and in a different NFS network using Fedora with KDE for Lazarus/FPC , Fortran and C programming . Previously I was using NFS and Samba together for the SAME NFS server in Fedora and KDE ( because it is easy to manage NFS server computers with KDE with respect to only "Fedora server" which is using command line management ) because of developing my programs also in Windows . ( When Linux is used only ) file names are consistently handled with respect to case sensitivity and file access rights . When Windows is used on the same NFS server through Samba , as a result of editing or touching file names , file names are converted to UPPERcase and their access rights are broken . In such a combined use , it is forced to use ONLY Windows to manage file names and access rights consistently . For that reason I have abandoned the use of Windows and continued with only Linux . It is possible to use Windows if you CAN ACCESS to NFS server from Windows ( if Windows is allowing such an access ) ( for ONLY compilations but never for editing ) ( because it is becoming necessary to adjust file names ( you may use UPPERcase in Linux also but sometimes this may NOT be possible ) and their access rights to enable to use them from Linux ) . In short , the use of such a combination ( as Linux and Windows ) is really difficult .
It is possible to use KUbuntu ( KDE with Ubuntu ) . My choice is Fedora because I find it more easily usable and with respect to their *.rpm repository quality .
